Today was a very nice late February day here in South Dakota. It was sunny and in the mid 30s. The kids and I went outside to play while Cory worked on taxes, and when we went out front Ella kept heading to the van. It took her a while before I convinced her that we were actually outside to play and not just rush to the van to go somewhere. Shows how little she's played outside this winter with the cold weather!

Later on, Accalia and I went to Goodwill while Cole and Ella stayed at home with Cory. We had an excellent shopping trip and came away with quite a few things for less than $17. Cory had requested that I look for dress pants for work, and I found a gray pair that wouldn't have been his first choice but should work in the interim. Then we found some great deals for Accalia. We found a pink pair of athletic pants, a pair of jeans that actually fits her (most jeans just fall down around her skinny waist), a super cute Old Navy denim dress, and a pair of jean shorts. Then there were a few other items that Accalia picked up for herself and her siblings. We ran a few other places, too.

Now Cory is delivering pizzas. I think the kids want to watch a movie tonight, so I'll dig around for one they haven't seem yet. Tomorrow Cory works during the day, and I have a feeling the kids and I will try to do a little grocery shopping.
